( ID: 104112 ) Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer
sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Ever since humans inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of
communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral
speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign
language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute
have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very
picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or
unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod
signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots
read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture
signs also guide, warn, and instruct people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques
also express human thoughts and feelings.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Rachel Carson was born in 1907 in Springsdale, Pennsylvania. She studied biology at
college and zoology at Johns Hopkins University, where she received her masters degree in
1933. In 1936, she was hired by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, where she worked most of

her life.
Carsons first book, Under the Sea Wind, was published in 1941. It received
excellent reviews, but sales were poor until it was reissued in 1952. In that year she published
The Sea Around Us, which provided a fascinating look beneath the oceans surface,
emphasizing human history as well as geology and marine biology. Her imagery and language
had a poetic quality. Carson consulted no less than 1,000 printed sources. She had voluminous
correspondence and frequent discussions with experts in the field. However, she always realized
the limitations of her nontechnical readers.
In 1962, Carson published Silent Spring, a book that sparked considerable
controversy. It proved how much harm was done by the uncontrolled, reckless use of
insecticides. She detailed how they poison the food supply of animals, kill birds and fish, and
contaminate human food. At the time, spokesmen for the chemical industry mounted personal
attacks against Carson and issued propaganda to indicate that her findings were flawed.
However, her work was proved by a 1963 report of the Presidents Science Advisory
Committee.
